Famous quotes containing the word scenery:
“If I wished to see a mountain or other scenery under the most favorable auspices, I would go to it in foul weather, so as to be there when it cleared up; we are then in the most suitable mood, and nature is most fresh and inspiring. There is no serenity so fair as that which is just established in a tearful eye.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Charles Foster Kane: You always said you wanted to live in a palace.
Susan Alexander: Oh, a person could go crazy in this dump. Nobody to talk to, nobody to have any fun with.
Charles Foster Kane: Susan.
Susan Alexander: Forty-nine thousand acres of nothing but scenery and statues. I’m lonely.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1985)
“The scenery of mountain towns is commonly too much crowded. A town which is built on a plain of some extent, with an open horizon, and surrounded by hills at a distance, affords the best walks and views.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
